Alice hurriedly said, âGong Jie, calm down.â
âHow can I calm down!?â Gong Jie retorted angrily, âIf you were to tell me that itâs only because my sister didnât acknowledge him, only because of this matter⦠Itâs simply unreasonable to keep Youyou by his side, to punish her!â
âItâs not what you think.â Alice also stood up and said agitatedly, âItâs not punishment, nor is he targeting her. Itâs justâ¦â
Gong Jie fixed his gaze on her. âAlice, youâve never been a mother. You donât understand the pain of losing a son!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Alice stared at Gong Jie with her mouth agape. She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart. She clenched her fists and suddenly said in self-mockery, âIâm afraid I wonât have the chance to be a mother in this lifetime! However, that doesnât mean that I canât understand how a mother feels.â
Gong Jie was stunned as well. He had hurt her unintentionally with his words.
Alice could not conceive. Before she joined the Hurricane Group, she was a practicing doctor. In order to study a vaccine, she used herself as an experimental subject. However, she did not expect the experiment to fail. There was a backlash and she was infected with the virus. She toed the line between life
and death for a few days before she was finally out of danger.
As a result of what she did, the hospital barred her from practice. Because of the viral infection, she was not able to conceive for the rest of her life. This had become a sore spot for her.
âTm sorry.â
âItâs alright, it has nothing to do with you.â
She was the one who associated that remark to her own infertility, Gong Jie did not mean it that way.
Gong Jie sighed. âForget it. If you donât wish to tell me, then forget it.â
Just as he was about to leave, Alice suddenly said, âIâm very curious. How did you come to suspect that Gong Fan is Yun Tianyou?â
Gong Jie stopped in his tracks, turned around, and curled his lips. âI just did. With some judgment.â
Gong Fanâs identity was indeed very suspicious.
Alice said to the man, âSit down.â
Gong Jie did not say anything but sat down on the chair as told. As he did so, Alice asked curiously, âDid you not think it odd, since Gong Fan is Yun Tianyou, that he didnât try to find his way back to you guys?â
âIhavenât been able to find an explanation up till now. Could it be amnesiaâ¦â
Alice smiled and picked up the wine glass. She drank the wine in one gulp and finally decided to come clean!
Perhaps Gong Jieâs words had compelled her!
The pain of losing a child⦠As a woman, likewise, she could not bear the pain of seeing the mother and child being separated.
She said, âYouyou didnât lose his memory.â
Hearing this, Gong Jie abruptly raised his head and glared at her. âSo you admit that Gong Fan is Yun Tianyou!â
âYes!â Alice nodded frankly. âGong Jie, youâre an intelligent man, you already know the answer. Youâre asking me because you trust me. Weâve known each other for so many years; I canât let you down!â
Gong Jie did not know if this was a cause for joy or worry! He was elated that Youyou was still alive. Since Alice said this, it must be true! No matter what, it was fortunate that he was still alive! However, he was heartbroken to know that Youyou was in such a state!
Just the fact that heâd accepted the name âGong Fanâ was something that he couldnât figure out.
He.
âHeâs already forgotten you.â Alice paused for a moment before continuing, âNaturally, he has also forgotten Yun Shishi and Mu Yazhe. The boy has no memory of the name âYun Tianyouâ..
